From Massachusetts, love Jazz and Sports. Twitter escapee.

A very exciting Sunday: swapped out my gas stove for full electric with induction hobs! The most satisfying moment was when the gas engineer capped off the end of the pipe and made sure there were no leaks. My kitchen is now emissions free - no need for a carbon monoxide detector.

Next step is to swap out the gas boiler for a heat pump, hopefully within the next couple of months, and then we can disconnect the gas supply.

Here's a neat #Mastodon trick I just discovered:

You can access an RSS feed of any user's posts simply by adding .rss onto the end of their profile URL — so, for instance:

https://twit.social/@jr.rss

You can then use that link to follow all of that person's posts in Feedly, Feedbin, or any other RSS reading service.

Heck, you can even do it directly in #Chrome, if you want!

This is such an enjoyable - and enjoyably titled - #jazz selection!

I haven’t figured out a good way to link videos on this platform yet. So, here is a photo of #sunra at the Modern Theatre, Boston in December 1978.

“That got me thinking that, you know, being able to express myself online to my friends through short messages was actually very important to me, important also to the world, and that maybe it should not be in the hands of a single corporation that can just do whatever it wants with it.” — Eugen Rochko @Gargron in Time today
